Trump last month declared a national emergency at the border, and said he wants to use $3.6 billion for border wall projects. The Pentagon's list said it has found possible funding sources that are "in excess of the amount needed."

" We know President Trump wants to make money from our National Security Accounts to pay for his wall, and now we have a list of some of the projects and needed base repairs that could be put on the chopping block as a result. "

" What President Trump is doing is a slap in the face to our military that makes our border and the country less secure. He is planning to take funds from real, effective operational priorities and needed projects and divert them to his vanity wall. That may help shore up his political base , but it could come at the expense of our military bases and the men and women of our Armed Forces who rely on them. "

" A bipartisan majority of Congress went on record in voting to rebuke this ill-convinced idea. Now that members of Congress can see the potential impact this proposal could have in their home states. I hope they will take that into consideration before the vote to override the President's veto"

The commandant of the Marines has warned the Pentagon that deployments to the southwest border and funding transfers under the president's emergency declaration, among other unexpected demands, have posed “unacceptable risk to Marine Corps combat readiness and solvency.”

In two internal memos, Marine Corps Gen. Robert Neller said the “unplanned/unbudgeted” deployment along the border that President Trump ordered last fall, and shifts of other funds to support border security, had forced him to cancel or reduce planned military training in at least five countries, and delay urgent repairs at bases.

The border deployment and funding transfers, as well as recovery costs from hurricanes Florence and Michael, new housing allowances and civilian pay raises, are taking a toll on combat readiness, Neller wrote to Navy Secretary Richard Spencer and Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan.

The American public's approval of Congress reached a two-year high, according to the results of a new Gallup poll.

The poll released Tuesday found that 26 percent of respondents approve of Congress's job performance, the highest mark since February 2017, when 28 percent said they approved.

Approval ratings have historically been low for Congress. According to Gallup, the average approval rating for Congress has been 30 percent since 1974.

Since President Trump took office, the approval rating for Congress has ranged from a low of 13 percent to a high of 28 percent.

Tuesday's poll found that Democrats are more likely than Republicans to approve of Congress, with 30 percent of Democratic respondents and 18 percent of Republican respondents approving. Twenty-seven percent of independents polled said they approve of Congress, according to Gallup.

Gallup noted that Democratic approval has surged since Democrats regained control of the House following last year's midterm elections.
